Article Title: Validation of Electronic Visual Acuity (EVA) Measurement Against Standardised ETDRS Charts In Patients With Visual Field Loss From Inherited Retinal Degenerations

doi: 10.1136/bjophthalmol-2019-315124

Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of visual field loss on reading ability on ETDRS charts. (A) Microperimetry of the remaining central visual field in one eye with advanced choroideremia. The colored areas indicate the seeing parts of the retina. (B) ETDRS chart for measuring visual acuity. (C) A simulation of the appearance of the chart in B to the eye in A, making it difficult to track across the letters and obtain an accurate measure of visual acuity. (D) E-ETDRS presentation with single letter on the center of the screen. (E) EVA-SL presentation with a single line of letters across the center of the screen. (F) Simulation of visual field loss on EVA, the patient can more easily search around the letter as it stays within a limited area.

Article Snippet: Visual acuity was measured twice using ETDRS charts, EVA automated single letter (E-ETDRS) and EVA single line (EVA-SL) presentation (EMMES, USA).

(B) Bland-Altman plot comparing ETDRS charts and the two EVA presentation paradigms of the automated E-ETDRS and single line presentation (EVA-SL) in healthy volunteer group. The dashed lines represent mean difference and the dotted lines show the limits of agreement.

(D) Bland-Altman plot comparing ETDRS charts and the E-ETDRS paradigm in the patient group. (E) Bland-Altman plot comparing ETDRS charts and single line presentation (EVA-SL) in the patient group. (F) Bland-Altman plot comparing E-ETDRS and EVA-SL. The dashed lines in the Bland-Altman plots represent mean difference and the dotted lines show the limits of agreement.

Figure Lengend Snippet: A) Test preference of the patient participants after presentation of ETDRS chart and E-ETDRS only; B) test preference after completion of all three tests. Line thickness indicates number of participant responses. For both diagrams, the key represents how many patients contributed to each line based on thickness. C) The reason for test preference after completion of ETDRS Charts and E-ETDRS charts. Reasons were assigned to one of three broad categories, identified by the colored background. D) Test preference after completion of all three tests (ETDRS charts, E-ETDRS and EVA-SL), and reasons given to support test preference. Line thickness indicates number of participant responses. Line colour indicates preferred test. Where more than one reason was given, both are included. Reasons are grouped according to thematic content.

doi: 10.1016/j.xops.2025.100790

Figure Lengend Snippet: Objective grading of various reading charts with a surgical microscope. The reticule centers on the character being used for objective measurement: (A) 20/200 character on the ETDRS chart by Alcon; (B) 20/200 character on the ETDRS chart by Bausch & Lomb; (C) J16 character on the Rosenbaum chart; and (D - E) N24 characters on the alphabetical and numerical N-notation charts, respectively.

Article Snippet: Four near visual acuity charts were included in this study: the ETDRS chart by Alcon (ETDRS-A, Alcon Inc), the ETDRS chart by Bausch & Lomb (ETDRS-BL, Bausch + Lomb), the Rosenbaum near vision chart (Veatch Ophthalmic Instruments), and the N-notation chart.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Patient age and VA at baseline. (A) Patient age at first treatment slightly increased over the years. Patients from 2012 onwards were statistically significantly older compared to 2009 (*p < 0.05, Dunnet’s t-test). (B) Baseline VA did not differ over the years. Horizontal lines show VA inclusion limits for MARINA and ANCHOR clinical trials. Note that only 60.6% of our real life cohort falls into the VA inclusion criteria of these clinical trials. Baseline VA for this analysis was adjusted for differences between decimal and ETDRS measurements based on Falkenstein et al . .

Article Snippet: We have corrected our baseline VA values for comparison with trials using ETDRS charts based on Falkenstein et al . Lines read only partially during decimal VA testing were counted if at least three of five characters were read correctly.
